Graham Nash Art Displayed at Rock and Roll Hall of Fame

Graham Nash is the latest artist honored with a new exhibit at Cleveland's Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, which will include handwritten lyrics, instruments and clothing from his career. However, in an interview with Billboard, he said he wants to be known for more than just his accomplishments in music, he wants fans to see his visual art as well.

"It looks f---ing spectacular," Nash said during the Billboard interview. "The one thing that I was wanting to do more than anything is make sure people understood Graham Nash is more than just Graham Nash that musician; that I'm a photographer and a painter and a sculptor and la la la la la, all that sh--. I'm happy to show it to people, to share what was going on in my life."

The exhibit is titled Graham Nash: Touching The Flame and replaces the year-long exhibit displaying works from Paul Simon's career and life, according to Cleveland Scene. Nash is an avid collector of many trinkets that interest him. Among those collector's items on display is a piece of the grassy knoll fence from Dallas Texas, where conspiracy theorists claim a second shooter assassinated President John F. Kennedy. Nash and bandmate David Crosby took the 3-inch piece of fence as a momento, he told Billboard.

Nash is a two-time inductee for his work in Crosby Stills & Nash and with The Hollies, but he wasn't shy about claims he should be inducted two more times for his solo work and Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young.

"Why not? Yeah, I'd like to see me in there. I'm a pretty historical f---in' figure regardless of my association with the Hollies or CSN or CSNY," he tolk Billboard. "And I definitely think that CSNY is a completely different band than Crosby, Stills & Nash, and why shouldn't they be in there too?"

Nash performed for a sold out crowd at the Rock Hall in Cleveland Friday to open the exhibit.
